Unlike the United States, In Australia, we don’t get large aircraft on domestic sectors which is a little disappointing. However, there are a few occasions during the year where you’re able to fly a 747 on a domestic leg. There has been a few this year already, but in the next few days, there’s an opportunity to do so.

If have flown one of these flights in the past and it’s a lot of fun. These flights are for the Antarctica sightseeing flights, but they also do these types of flights when there are sporting grand finals.
